حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو الْمُغِيرَةِ؛ حَدَّثَنَا مُعَانُ بْنُ رِفَاعَةَ؛ حَدَّثَنِي عَلِيُّ بْنُ يَزِيدَ؛ عَنْ الْقَاسِمِ؛ عَنْ أَبِي أُمَامَةَ الْبَاهِلِيِّ؛ عَنْ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَامِرٍ قَالَ
لَقِيتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَابْتَدَأْتُهُ فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ، قَالَ: فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، مَا نَجَاةُ الْمُؤْمِنِ ؟ قَالَ: يَا عُقْبَةُ، احْرُسْ لِسَانَكَ، وَلْيَسَعْكَ بَيْتُكَ، وَابْكِ عَلَى خَطِيئَتِكَ، قَالَ: ثُمَّ لَقِيَنِي رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ فَابْتَدَأَنِي فَأَخَذَ بِيَدِي فَقَالَ: يَا عُقْبَةُ بْنَ عَامِرٍ، أَلَا أُعَلِّمُكَ خَيْرَ ثَلَاثِ سُوَرٍ أُنْزِلَتْ فِي التَّوْرَاةِ وَالْإِنْجِيلِ وَالزَّبُورِ وَالْفُرْقَانِ الْعَظِيمِ ؟ قَالَ: قُلْتُ: بَلَى، جَعَلَنِي اللهُ فِدَاكَ. قَالَ: فَأَقْرَأَنِي قُلْ هُوَ اللهُ أَحَدٌ وَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ الْفَلَقِ وَ قُلْ أَعُوذُ بِرَبِّ النَّاسِ ثُمَّ قَالَ: يَا عُقْبَةُ، لَا تَنْسَاهُنَّ، وَلَا تَبِيتَ لَيْلَةً حَتَّى تَقْرَأَهُنَّ قَالَ: فَمَا نَسِيتُهُنَّ مُنْذُ قَالَ: لَا تَنْسَاهُنَّ، وَمَا بِتُّ لَيْلَةً قَطُّ حَتَّى أَقْرَأَهُنَّ. قَالَ عُقْبَةُ: ثُمَّ لَقِيتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ فَابْتَدَأْتُهُ فَأَخَذْتُ بِيَدِهِ، فَقُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ

I met the Messenger of Allah ﷺ so I approached him. He then grabbed me by my hand and said: I said, O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, what is the salvation of a believer? He said, "O ʿUqbah! Guard your tongue, let your house be big enough for you, and cry over your sins." He said: Then the Messenger of Allah ﷺ met me then approached me and grabbed me by my hand then said, "O ʿUqbah b. ʿĀmir! Shall I not teach you the best of three Sūrahs revealed in the Torah, Gospel, and the Great Quran?" He said, I said: Certainly, may Allah ˹allow˺ me to be sacrificed for you. He said, "The recite for me 'Say, He is Allah, the One Absolutely Unique.' (Ikhlāṣ 112:1), and 'Say, I seek refuge from the Lord of the daybreak.' (Falaq 113:1), and 'Say, I seek refuge from the Lord of humankind.' (Nās 114:1)'" Then he said, "O ʿUqbah! Do not forget them and do not let a night pass by until you recite them." He then said: I did not ever forget since he told me "Do not forget them," and no night ever passed me by until I recited them. ʿUqbah said: Then I met the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and I approached him. Then I grabbed a hold of his hand and said: O Messenger of Allah ﷺ, inform me about virtuous deeds. Then he said, "O ʿUqbah! Tie back ˹ties of kinship˺ with the one who cuts it off, ˹continue to˺ give to the one who prevents you from having, and leave alone the one who wrongs you."
